    Default recommend some essential PS3 games

    For the past 5 years I've only had a Wii. I finally got fed up with missing all the cool games and bought a PS3 and some games from a co-worker a few weeks ago.

    Right now the only games I have are Mafia 2, Skate 3, and Katamari Forever. I'm looking for recommendations of some "essential" games to play. I'll admit I'm almost entirely clueless on what to buy. Preferably I'd like games that have been out for a few years, that way I can buy them used for cheap. I'm pretty much open towards every genre except sports.

    I agree with CrapFace and add:
    Little Big Planet (I haven't played #2 yet but heard it's great as well)
    Red Dead Redemption

    I've got like 200 hours in Gran Turismo

    Red Dead Redemption
    GTA IV
    Metal Gear Solid 4
    Uncharted

    Ive never played Uncharted 2 since I sold my PS3 before it came out, but Ive heard it is better than the first one. And the first one was awesome.

    I remember playing Farcry 2 and it was pretty cool too.

    I just got my PS3 too! It's really nice borrowing games from all my friends that have owned PS3's for a while. God of War 3 (get the collectors edition too if you haven't played 1 & 2). Uncharted 1 & 2, playing 2 right now. Still got Metal Gear Solid 4, and Batman Arkham Asylum waiting to be beaten. I haven't played them yet but I would also just like to recommend Little Big Planet 1 & 2 as well.

    My friends that play video games own 360s.

    My boyfriend has Gamefly though and I am going to take advantage of that.

    Also thanks for all the recommendations so far. I bought Uncharted last night and I'm gonna start playing it after I finish this post.

    heavy rain
    god of war
    metal gear solid 4

    Also if you haven't played Ico or Shadows of Colossus pick up the ps3 pack for those, ps2 games but they're wonderful.

    You like comic books right check out the batman games.
    Mirrors edge is great and you can get it cheap

    More so for the bf3 though I mean, its specially made for PC, as opposed to being made for console then ported over badly.

    Apart from obviously looking nicer, better sound effects and the like, the pc version will be 64 players whereas the console version will be 24.

    I know but I can't afford a new PC to play a game.

    I loved BF2 on the PC though

    And it really isn't going to be bad at all on the PS3. Unless you're a PC fanboy bitchface then it'll be bad no matter what anyone says

    Oh hey guyz

    I've been playing Uncharted. I've been pretty busy lately so I haven't gotten very far. I really like platformer parts of the game, but I'm not to keen on the 3rd person shooter parts.

    KT Uncharted starts a little slow, but it gets super awesome.

    I don't think I've seen a bad suggestion itt.

    I'll throw in Infamous (if you like that kind of game) and Catherine (if you like that type of game, which you should, since it is fracking incredible).

    ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Collection comes out September 27 for $40, and if you have played or like playing those two games then get The Last Guardian when it comes out in 2012.

    Yeah, Catherine is already in my bf's gamefly queue for me. I mean any game with my name in it is worth checking out right?

    I agree that the gunfights are the weakest parts of Uncharted. They did a bit better in Uncharted 2 by making them multi-level and mixing them up considerably.

    I mean this still like a minor annoyance in the face of an amazing game.

    Just curious what you meant by in Uncharted 2 they made them "Multi-level"? No really just curious, I played Uncharted 2 for about 1 hour and then decided to put it down because I did just beat uncharted 1 in a weekend and wanted to mix it up with Castlevania/God of War. Once I beat those I'll get back to Uncharted 2, my brother was telling me it was loads better as well. Looking forward to #3 already.

    Uncharted was mostly on flat terrain. Some cover, some different directions, but generally straight forward.

    Uncharted 2 has more variation and requires a more tactical approach. High ground is available and valuable. When enemies have high ground on you, you're likely to pay for it. I just felt that there was more variety and challenge to the gunfights in Uncharted 2. Trust me, I have nothing but excellent things to say about the series. Can't wait for the 3rd.
